I enjoy going here for walks and jogs. I forget how long of a trail it is for walking/ jogging/ bicycling purposes but either way, it is enjoyable. They have BBQ grills and picnic areas, benches, fields for baseball and soccer, a basketball court and some complimentary exercising (gym) equipment for anyone who would like to use it. The park has easy (multiple) access points and although, certain parking areas can get busy during nice weather days, you have other parking options nearby. There are multiple restroom areas in the park. Pets (dogs to be exact) are allowed for a walk. You get pretty views of sunsets from here over the small lake that's there as the area is scenic. I go here occasionally for either exercising or just to get my mind of things as I find this place relaxing and chill. Check this park out if you haven't been here before. It's worth the visit.

They must've remodeled this since the last time I came here over 10 years ago. - all day dining pass every 90 minutes and drink pass every 15 minutes for reasonable price - smaller park footprint easier to get around - the food actually is pretty good for an amusement park quite a large variety Cons - so many rides were just randomly closed for the day - dynamic pricing changes the price of your ticket depending on when you buy it - the app sucks. It is not updated and keeps on showing things as close or reporting the wrong wait times. - At other places, such a cedar point when you walk in the restaurants are already open l. Here It was sort of nebulous as to when you could actually get your first meal. We walked in at 10:30 for the opening and it did not appear that restaurants open until noon, which meant that you couldn't get your meal as soon as you started the day. - on that same note the restaurants close an hour before the park actually hoses or some of them close even earlier like two hours before so again limiting when you may be able to eat and how much you may be able to use of your pass - 39 dollar for parking wth

We spend quite a bit of time driving our kiddos back and forth to various skate parks in the area. My son had been begging us to take him to the new Vernon Hills Skate Park, so we headed out on a beautiful sunny day. Getting to the park was a little tricky. For some reason we missed the turn. Aspen Drive is a little hidden if you don't look out for it. When in doubt, just turn around in the Vernon Hills Police Department parking lot ;-) The skate park is new and on the smaller side. For our kids, this was a little more on the beginner level. I don't recommend it for advanced riders. The rails and ledges are limited and it's pretty flat. But, it's so nice and new. The park district did a fantastic job. I have no doubt it will get used quite a bit. It's a great place to gather with friends! Take note: There is only a little shade with a couple of covered areas Tons of parking, and there is a Walgreens nearby for those wanting a snack. The nearby Sullivan Center is actually really nice. It was closed the day they went due to Covid19. Highly recommend for those starting out. Open dawn to dusk.
